Our take
As cryptocurrency has become increasingly mainstream, the demand for a proper crypto data infrastructure has also grown. Kaiko builds custom crypto data plans for enterprises, providing the necessary data layer for institutions to utilise digital assets effectively.
Founded in 2014, Kaiko has moved swiftly to form key partnerships in the market infrastructure and data space, for example its 2022 collaboration with the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE). This has given Kaiko investors access to data centres around the world while at the same time enhancing access to crypto data feeds for investors and traders on the ICE network. What's more, the company now serves some of crypto's most high-profile players, such as CoinShares and Paxos.
Kaiko has set its sights on further developing its infrastructure, with an especial focus on expanding its connectivity solution. This will allow the company to remain agile and competitive in the years to come.
